Take that, Barry!
I really need to either update this more often, or just give up on it completely. Most likely, neither of those things will happen. So, tough. Let’s see, what’s happened in the two weeks since I last posted. For starters, we lost two more softball games. No big surprise there. Our softball team actually has a webpage, here. Go check it out, if you feel like seeing how bad we are. Last Saturday there was a WWDN party/usermeet in a pub in Pasadena. Around 25 ‘boxers showed up, including the Head Monkey himself, Wil Wheaton. It was a lot of fun. Reminded me a bit of the old PB usermeets, except this time everyone was a mature, civilized adult. Or at least they acted that way for a few hours. And no burning of Magic cards took place. So the first thing we did at Lucky Baldwin’s was watch the Angels amazing comeback in game 6 of the World Series. It was an amazing game, and the whole place went crazy when it was over. The rest of the night was a lot of fun. Not all that much to talk about, really, after we scared away the people who were there, and took the whole upstairs over for ourselves. Just hanging out, talking, being geeks. There are some pictures of the whole event here and here. Moving right along… after the party I was back in Andrew’s apartment dreading the ride home, when I must have gone temporarily insane. I bought tickets for Game 7 of the World Series, from someone on eBay. So I crashed on his extra mattress, and the next day went to a baseball game. Not just any baseball game, Game 7! It kicked so much ass, I can’t even begin to describe it. All I can say is if you ever get a chance to go to a World Series Game 7… take it! You won’t regret it. Especially if the home team wins, the whole place just goes nuts. After the game, we went to eat, and then I drove back to Santa Barbara. Nothing interesting to report since then, I’ve just been working all week. Hopefully I won’t be lazy this weekend and I’ll actually get out and do something. I’ll let you know. 🙂 |
